		+	The A1200 was a more advanced Amiga than the A500 and A500+ models shown above. It uses a newer custom chipset known as AGA, which provides more colours on screen in games and a more advanced Workbench Operating system. Games marked as being AGA will need to be run using an A1200 setup.
		+
		+	It is also worth noting that because the A1200 has more physical Chip ram as standard and the newer AGA chipset that many older Amiga games originally written for the A500 will not run on this setup. If a game refuses to load when trying this setup try the A500 setup instead.

		+	Settings to use in the emulator:

		+	* 2MB Chip Ram

If you wish to emulate other models of Amiga have a look at the [[Amiga models]] table and copy the hardware settings from the table into your emulators settings and you should be able to accurately emulate that model.

This is a brief overview of the most common Amiga setups an Amiga Emulator can be setup as to run most Amiga games, Demos and productivity software.

==A500==

The original A500 is the most common Amiga system for running Amiga games. Most games that were not designed specifically for the later A1200 will run using this setup. If a game has AGA in the title then it will need the A1200 setup. Otherwise most will run using this A500 setup.

Settings to use in the emulator:

* [[Kickstart Roms Explained|Kickstart]] 1.3
* 512KB Chip Ram
* 512KB Slow/Fast Ram
* [[68000]] Processor
* [[Custom Chipsets|OCS]] Chipset

Additional options (set these if your emulator includes them)

* Match A500 speed
* More Compatible
* No FPU

==A500+/A600==

The A500+ and A600 share very similar hardware so the settings will be nearly the same. Most games only need the standard A500 settings already shown above. However some may need the newer settings of these machines. If you see a game mentioned as being ECS then you will need to use this setup.

Settings to use in the emulator:

* [[Kickstart Roms Explained|Kickstart]] 2.04 (A500+) or 2.05 (A600)
* 1MB Chip Ram
* No Fast Ram
* [[68000]] Processor
* [[Custom Chipsets|ECS]] Chipset

Additional options (set these if your emulator includes them)

* Match A500 speed
* More Compatible
* No FPU
